Dragon Raja: Lu Mingfei's Bullet Screen Wish Machine

Chapter 117 Liu Miaomiao: Save me!

Friday night, in the west of the city.

"Big brother, big brother!"

In the darkness, a handsome young man let out a mournful cry.

"My dear brother, I would probably be happier if you put the energy you used to cry and scream into getting our older brother out."

A voice echoed softly, "Also, I'm to your east, you've cried at the wrong grave."

"oh oh."

Old Tang snapped out of his daze, took out a flashlight from his pocket, and although he didn't know which way was east, he looked around and found Fingel in the green belt, his butt sticking out like a bear trying to steal honey but with its head stuck in a tree hole.

The two are now on a dark street.

Not far away, a bald, burly man lay sprawled on the sidewalk, completely unconscious.

This person is Old Tang's target for this mission. He accepted the mission on the Hunter website to capture a fugitive degenerate hybrid.

Just to be safe, he invited Fingel to help him out. The prize money would be split 40/60, with him getting 40% and Fingel getting 60%, plus he would have to cover the guy's late-night snacks for a month.

Although it hurt to part with the money, Lao Tang has always been a cautious person.

Before coming, Fingel boasted to him that with the prize money in hand, the Dragon King would be defeated. Although Old Tang didn't believe it, he was still quite confident in Fingel's strength. He thought that Fingel was just a fallen hybrid and that he could definitely take him down easily.

Little did they expect that this guy was mentally unstable. As soon as he saw the two of them, he immediately took a vial of evolution medicine, and the two animals started a passionate brawl.

Unfortunately, there was a transformer substation next to them, which was converted from an old street-facing storefront. In the process of fighting, they accidentally smashed the transformer, causing a power outage for the entire block.

Old Tang heard Fingel exclaim "Holy crap, Deep Blood!" in the darkness, and then there was no more sound.

The Word of Power: Deep Blood can make the user's bodily fluids contain a deadly poison. When Old Tang heard this, his heart sank. The employer who issued the mission only said that the Word of Power of the fallen half-blood was unknown, without specifying the type of Word of Power.

Old Tang doesn't believe he's a high-level hybrid. He doesn't even have the power of words. He's gotten this far entirely by "luck." Many supernatural phenomena inexplicably fail to work on him.

Fortunately, as an experienced hunter, Old Tang reacted quickly. He used his impact glow stick to create an instant explosion, which stunned the guy who had been drugged and whose brain had been damaged for half a second, and also emptied all the Friga bullets in his pistol.

The crisis was over, and Old Tang was crying for his older brother when he discovered that his brother was not dead, but had been kicked into the green belt.

Liu Miaomiao returned home.

The company has a very important project, and my parents went to another city for a site visit. Our housekeeper also had to take leave, so the house is very quiet.

Liu Miaomiao changed into slippers, threw her schoolbag on the sofa, and went to the water dispenser to get a glass of water.

Only one floor lamp was on in the living room, casting a warm yellow light on the wooden floor. She carried her cup up to the third floor, stood at the door of the piano room, and glanced at the black Steinway piano.

The music room was dark, the curtains were drawn, and the light from the neighborhood streetlights seeped in through the gaps, cutting a thin white line across the warm, textured piano keys.

For some inexplicable reason, Liu Miaomiao thought of the old piano in the art building and the mysterious person who had answered her melody.

Starting from Wednesday, it has been three consecutive days.

She started with "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star," and then, intending to show off her skills, she played "Canon in D," to her surprise, the other person caught it.

The worst part is that today that guy actually started playing "Moonlight Sonata"!

Although the old piano's performance limited it and the sound was just average, Liu Miaomiao listened carefully and discovered that what he/she was playing was actually correct!

This is downright provocative!

Practicing the piano in the middle of the day is already irritating, and Liu Miaomiao got angry and ran downstairs to look for someone, only to find no one there.

Liu Miaomiao suspected that someone was deliberately playing a trick on her, but she couldn't think of anyone who could it be.

First of all, she was well-liked at school; there was no one at Shilan Middle School who had a bad relationship with Liu Miaomiao.

Secondly, that guy must have been practicing the piano for a long time. She drew three pieces, all of which happened to be on the sheet music he had practiced. This further narrowed down the circle of suspicion.

Looking at the Steinway piano in the room, Liu Miaomiao thought of the old piano again, and vaguely heard someone say to her, "I could play better than you by poking it with a stick a couple of times."

As a renowned talented girl at Shilan Middle School, and a piano prodigy praised since childhood, when has Liu Miaomiao ever suffered such humiliation?

After drinking the water in her glass in one gulp, Liu Miaomiao turned on the light and sat down at the piano.

Moonlight, launch!

After a while, Liu Miaomiao closed the sheet music and began playing "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" with a blank expression.

Obviously, anger doesn't solve problems; it only makes things worse.

Liu Miaomiao pondered to herself that perhaps she could go to the art building early tomorrow at noon to stake out the place.

If the other person comes, then you can catch them. If the other person doesn't come, it means that this person knows your movements very well, and may be a classmate.

Thinking of this, Liu Miaomiao's vision suddenly went black.

It's not that I'm sick.

It was as if all the light in the world had been taken away in an instant. The chandelier in the music room, the floor lamp in the living room, and the night light in the corridor all went out at the same time, and even the air conditioner vents stopped with a "hum".

Liu Miaomiao's fingers froze on the piano keys, the piano emitted a sudden soft sound, and then fell silent.

power cut.

The room was completely dark, as was the view outside the window; it was cloudy tonight, and there wasn't even moonlight.

Liu Miaomiao's first reaction was not "Why is there a power outage?" but "Why is it so dark?"

The fear of darkness is etched into the deepest code of the human genome.

However, in most cases, this feeling diminishes with age.

Liu Miaomiao was an exception—she had always been afraid of the dark.

During the few days her parents were away, she insisted on having all the lights in all the rooms on when she went to sleep, and she also had to have a small nightlight on by her bedside, otherwise she wouldn't dare to fall asleep.

At this moment, Liu Miaomiao sat on the piano bench with her back ramrod straight, not out of politeness, but because she was firmly controlled by the darkness.

Liu Miaomiao wanted to call for help, but her parents and the housekeeper were not there. She was all alone in the empty villa.

When people are nervous, they often have random thoughts. Liu Miaomiao inexplicably thought of the piano music coming from the art building.

For three consecutive days, she was unable to find the person who played the piano.

What if, what if the other party—is not human at all?

The unseen person.

An old piano that plays automatically.

Ghosts wandering within the art building —

Liu Miaomiao was suddenly terrified, and she could no longer maintain her posture. Her hands instinctively braced themselves on the piano keys.

This led to another result: the keys were pressed, the piano made a sound, and she was startled again.

Why is the piano bullying me too? — Liu Miaomiao was so aggrieved she was almost crying.

She dared not move, her feet in slippers on the pedals, her toes curled tightly, her body tense.

There were emergency candles and flashlights at home, but these things were kept on the first floor, and Liu Miaomiao didn't dare to go over to get them.

Besides, it wouldn't be of any use to her. If she were home alone, she wouldn't dare to sleep with just one candle lit.

Thinking of this, Liu Miaomiao suddenly had a thought.

Not alone —

Lu Mingfei lives next door to her!

Liu Miaomiao became excited, as if a drowning person had grasped at the last straw. She frantically searched her body and finally found her phone.

With trembling fingers, Liu Miaomiao opened QQ as fast as she could and sent Lu Mingfei a message: "Help me!"

After sending the message, Liu Miaomiao suddenly realized that it could be misunderstood, so she quickly edited it again: "Lu Mingfei, are you asleep? My power is out, could you come over for a bit? I'm a little scared."

It could have been a second, or it could have been a century, when my phone vibrated.

Lu Mingfei: "It's stopped here too. There might be a problem with the circuit in this area."

Lu Mingfei: "I can go there now, but I don't have a key to your house."

Liu Miaomiao's heart sank as she realized the problem.

Liu Miaomiao: "I—I don't dare to go down and open the door."

"Don't panic, let me see if we can get in through the window."

Lu Mingfei remained very calm.

Climbing through the window?

Liu Miaomiao was stunned for a moment. There were security doors on both the first and second floors; did she have to climb in from the third floor?

Lu Mingfei: "Which room are you in?"

The question was very simple and direct, leaving Liu Miaomiao no room to think.

Liu Miaomiao: "————The music room."

Lu Mingfei: "Where is the music room?"

"The music room is in—"

After typing a few words, Liu Miaomiao realized that she had no idea how to describe the location of the music room. The villa in California Sunshine was very large, and the music room was not simply located on the east or west side.

Lu Mingfei: "Forget it, I'll look for them one by one."

Liu Miaomiao: "Wait, I have a way."

She sat up straight, took a deep breath, and began to play "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star".

Lu Mingfei can definitely hear the sound; she just needs to keep playing until he comes over.

Leave home.

To be honest, this power outage was quite unexpected. California Sunshine is located on relatively high ground, and Lu Mingfei took a short look into the distance and found that the entire block was without power.

This is not surprising. In summer, electricity consumption is higher, and a heavy load can easily burn out something, causing a power outage.

In 2008, China's power generation capacity had not yet reached the terrifying levels that would be considered terrifying in later years, so people at that time were very accepting of "power outages".

When Liu Miaomiao sent the message, Lu Mingfei was chatting with both Su Xiaoqiang and Chen Wenwen at the same time.

The Olympic flash mob project is progressing smoothly and it's not too busy yet. Considering that Shilan Middle School hasn't started its summer break yet, Lu Mingfei hired two college students as store managers to handle the daily affairs.

The two young store managers, the head and deputy head, are very enthusiastic about their work, not just because they are paid.

Commercial projects related to Olympic Games and public viewing spots in cities sound very prestigious, and I can include this work experience in my resume later.

However, Su Xiaoqiang still needs to go to Shengjing Building on Sunday. He attaches great importance to his first entrepreneurial project.

Chen Wenwen's progress is a bit more peculiar.

I originally thought that through the dialogue, we could achieve the goal of [sharing our reading notes at the book club and then checking Chen Wenwen's notes afterward].

This is my wish.

Unexpectedly, Chen Wenwen misunderstood, thinking he was targeting her.

The good news is that the two have resolved their differences, but the bad news is that they didn't get the wish points.

In a fit of anger, President Lu examined Chen Wenwen's notes.

The process went relatively smoothly, but because the artsy girl was too shy, Lu Mingfei only investigated half of it.

Then he suddenly understood how to complete the scratch-off lottery task.

Taking into account the importance of moderation, Lu Mingfei stopped at the appropriate time, but he told Chen Wenwen that next time he would check everything.

The artsy girl agreed in a daze.

During the conversation, Chen Wenwen's mind was dominated by reason, and she tried to back out, bargaining with Lu Mingfei. But Lu Mingfei could tell that she was actually quite looking forward to it.

As for following Liu Miaomiao recently, it was actually a sudden idea of ​​Lu Mingfei's, with the aim of stealing some fake points from the wishing machine.

One of the wishes in the wishing machine is to "perform a duet with Liu Miaomiao", but it does not specify the instruments or the manner of the duet.

Lu Mingfei has now mastered a little bit of piano skills. With the blessing of his dragon bloodline, he can reproduce a piece of music after listening to it.

However, this ability to replicate does not seem to be complete. Lu Mingfei vaguely sensed that his brain was in a state of gradual development or unlocking, which is in line with the principle of use and disuse.

Lu Mingfei was delighted to gain a deeper understanding of his own talent, but unfortunately, playing half a piece by one person doesn't count as an ensemble, so he couldn't get the wish points.

Fortunately, it wasn't all for naught, because Lu Mingfei discovered that his talent for "secretly striving" actually worked while he was eavesdropping on Liu Miaomiao playing the piano!

The more you listen to the piano, the better you play.

The only difficulty is that the old piano is indeed difficult to use, but fortunately, the "Hand of the Secrets" gives him the ability to convert touched objects into intuitive data.

Upon first touch, Lu Mingfei understood the wear and tear and structure of the piano, and then deduced the playing method from the reverse, managing not to play too badly.

I walked around Liu Miaomiao's house to get a general idea of ​​the route.

The piano music was coming from the window on the right side of the third floor. The tone was slightly muffled through the glass, but the melody was very clear.

With his mixed-race physique, Lu Mingfei jumped directly to the third floor and landed steadily on the narrow platform outside the music room window.

The music stopped.

Liu Miaomiao heard a noise outside the window and her back tensed up in fright. Then, someone knocked on the window glass twice.

"Liu Miaomiao, it's me."

Hearing that familiar voice, she actually felt like crying.

Before she could go over and open the window, it was suddenly opened.

A night breeze blew in, carrying the lingering heat from the grass outside after a day in the sun, and then she saw a deathly pale face.

"Lu Mingfei, don't scare me."

Liu Miaomiao said.

Lu Mingfei felt a little regretful, removed the flashlight from his chin, and turned to go into the music room.

After all, he notified Liu Miaomiao first before opening the window. If he had just opened the window and barged in, Liu Miaomiao would definitely have been frightened.

"Was that 'Twinkle Twinkle Little Star' you just played?"

Lu Mingfei asked casually.

"Um.

"

Liu Miaomiao nodded, then after a half-second, she realized what she meant, "You recognized it?"

Liu Miaomiao was a little surprised. "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" is a very basic piano piece, but that's mainly for people who have played the piano.

In her mind, Lu Mingfei had absolutely nothing to do with the term "classical music".

She thought he would just say "It sounds nice" and that would be it, but she didn't expect him to actually be able to name the song.
